On Wikipedia, respelling is most commonly used to help clarify the pronunciation of a name or topic in the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section|lead section]] or introductory paragraph of an article. Per the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Pronunciation|Manual of Style]], respelling may only follow and augment a corresponding [[International Phonetic Alphabet]] template (e.g., {{tl|IPAc-en}}) and may never be used in place of one.

This template formats pronunciation respellings of English words. It puts the input in italics, hyphenates each value so it will represent a syllable, and links to Help:Pronunciation respelling key. Stressed syllables are input in uppercase and will appear slightly smaller than usual uppercase letters.

Notation must be spelled accordingly to the respelling key at Help:Pronunciation respelling key. For example, the word pronunciation (IPA: /prəˌnʌnsiˈeɪʃən/) is respelled prə-NUN-see-AY-shən; using this template, the formatting is:

How to use

On Wikipedia, respelling is most commonly used to help clarify the pronunciation of a name or topic in the lead section or introductory paragraph of an article. Per the Manual of Style, respelling may only follow and augment a corresponding International Phonetic Alphabet template (e.g., {{IPAc-en}}) and may never be used in place of one. The template provides a link to a key so that readers may easily discover how to pronounce an easily mispronounced or difficult-to-pronounce word. For example:

Common practice is to put no punctuation except one space between the IPA and the respelling for clarity, as in:

Any argument containing an underscore or beginning or ending with a hyphen will not generate adjoining hyphens and will instead turn the underscore into a space, allowing for denoting word boundaries, alternate pronunciations, and affix ellipses. For example:

An argument beginning in (- or ending in -) will also suppress the extra hyphen, so that optional syllables can be indicated.
